I'm not 100% sure how that works not being married but that could impact people here I guess.
Just seems like a shitty loophole to be exploited to me.

Married tax allowance means a married couple can combine their tax free allowance if one earns below the threshold that is transferred to the other partner. It's a few hundred quid a year for me as my wife doesn't work so I get her full tax allowance. I don't care though, fuck the Tories.
Marriage Allowance lets you transfer £1,250 of your Personal Allowance to your husband, wife or civil partner - if they earn more than you.
This reduces their tax by up to £250 in the tax year (6 April to 5 April the next year).
This guide is also available in Welsh (Cymraeg).
To benefit as a couple, you (as the lower earner) must normally have an income below your Personal Allowance - this is usually £12,500.

You can backdate your claim to include any tax year since 5 April 2015 that you were eligible for Marriage Allowance.

No real need for that. Hopefully she'll be back.
I hope so to, but it was a massive over reaction. We don't need to pander to it as if it's reasonable behaviour.

While nobody here can be expected to know that, and her reaction did seem sudden and extreme, it’s also understandable that she’s going to be sensitive to the subject. It’s easy to flare up at something that seems insignificant to others when there’s a whole load of history behind it.
